22-3 Weekend homesteading at the off grid shed to cabin build. Fireguard for the wood stove.

  • The basic solar is working! I brought up the new 2000K Renogy inverter that I recently purchased to replace the old harbor freight model that I had used in the past. Unfortunately, it is much bigger and doesn't fit in the space that I had planned. Always a kink in the plan!. At least hanging the fire guard for the wood stove went fairly easily. Spring is still a long ways off but already I can tell that we have turned the corner. The days are a few minutes longer each new day and the skies are starting to be clear and blue more often. That dark grayness of the last couple of months has really got me in a funk this year and I'm ready for sunshine and warmer weather! I think that the next trip up to the off grid shed to cabin project will be more focused on enjoying the land and cabin. A little trout fishing may be a priority! Thanks for watching and we will see you soon.!

It’s crazy How different it looks editing on the computer vs. the final after publish. My point is…. I hope to improve the quality and content as this channel grows.

      It’s difficult when the time comes, but we know they’ve had an amazing experience and love filled time with us. River has a fantastic life with you and so much fun chasing squirrels. Magen has a grey chin at 6 years but she plays like a puppy. All our Shepherds are a one off, hopefully the next 20 or 30 years will be full of their craziness, I’m 51 , looking for an adventure over the pond in the USA and Canada for my retirement in a few years. But not without a shepherd beside me.

      One of these days I'm going to figure out a dutch oven jambalaya recipe in your honor. How is NO? Is life getting back to normal or is it still scrambling? I think of you often and how you had to evacuate. Covid made me rethink a lot of things and you're situation reinforced some of those preparedness and self reliant concerns that I was faced with.

    • @paulpuckerinGM
      @paulpuckerinGM 3 роки тому

      @TRE RUNS-WILD Woot woot Jambalaya is the business! That would be amazing if you can sort out making one for the video channel. NOLA is mostly recovered. Except some of folks out in the bayous and swamps. They're still dealing with some issues. We're all dealing with insurance and/or FEMA claim stuff. (I evacuated just before the storm. My insurance covered my expenses in Miami and flying to Philly while I was a refugee. Now I'm filing a claim with FEMA to get my insurance deductible back.) I have a survival kit now for this hurricane season. But, to be honest if it looks bad I'll bail out again probably. I work remotely so, I must have power and reliable internet services. Along with drinking water sewer and trash removal. In the New Orleans summer heat, you need those and AC! I kept my survival kit refreshed in case we lose power for a prolonged period of time. It gives me a sense of confidence that I can get by without having to trash all my food in the fridge and can cook on gas hiking stove. Covid and Ida hit us at the same time. So, I have my escape planned if I need. I totally understand and respect your planning for self reliance and survival if and when things go sideways. If fact, you inspired me to take steps to be better prepared. I thank you my friend. Respect.

    @jonhronek7134 3 роки тому +1

    Made my week seeing new content. 2 things, first is I heat my home with wood stove and the quickest fire starter is a toilet paper roll filled with dryer lint soaked in oil. No need for kindling as long as wood is dry. The other one i use is a silicone muffin pan fill with saw dust, not treated wood, or dryer lint then filled with paraffin wax. Great for camping also. Think about a 100 # propane tank for your stove, usually a fixed price to fill and running just a stove will last, I'm going on 9 months. I run 2 and rotate. Plus I have duel fuel generator that is hooked up in case of extended power outage

      I use empty cardboard egg cartons for fire starters. Fill with sawdust or little pine cones and pour in hot wax. I pick up old candles at estate or garage sales and melt them in an old tea kettle on a single induction burner. This is a good project for the garage. There is a high risk of fire when melting wax over a flame or an electric stove. I pull out the wicks at the bottom of the pan, snip them in short lengths and stick them into the fire starter while it is still soft. Let them cool and then cut apart into individual sections. The wick makes easy to light. I store them in a big popcorn tin that I found at a thrift store. If you put out the word that you could use old candles, folks will be dropping them off by the bagful!

    Fire starter I find works great is taking a cardboard egg carton and cutting all the pods up separately. Pack each one with dryer lint, and just use left over kitchen animal grease from the fry pan. Put them in a ziploc bag. Good for at least 10 minute burn depending on how packed they are. All reused materials.

    • @TRERUNSWILD

    I use the same Ryobi tools! I bought the airgun last year and so far so good. When installing the corregated metal heat shield, some people make spacers from metal conduit cut to the length you need. Drive the screws inside the conduit spacers. That would eliminate the wood spacers and improve airflow behind the metal heat shield. The window trim looks good. I dread doing that! - Dave

I actually just liked the music and the sound of the singers voice when I picked the song. I didn't mean it to be happy or sad. I believe that God always has his hand on things so maybe it's not just a coincidence that it came at the same time. Maybe to the right person it will mean just the right thing that they need to hear about hanging on...........

    Lost me on the heat reflector/shield on the wall. Did you leave the wooden spacers behind the corrugated metal? You did give me a great idea with it where you have washers and a nut on the back side of heat shield. That way you do not need wood spacers and the air flow would only be interrupted by the bolt going into the wall and no combustibles will be touching the heat shield. The cabin is looking great! Stay safe, warm, and healthy! Awaiting more solar trials!
